Richard Einhorn

American composer, author of numerous film soundtracks, orchestral compositions, and songs commissioned by such performers as Anonymous 4. He made a name for himself as the composer of an opera based on the biography of Charles Darwin, and the author of an oratorio inspired by the film “La Passion de Jeanne d’Arc”. Einhorn has been influenced by Romantic aesthetics characterized by broad phrases and rich instrumentations, and by minimal music. (EC)
